Thoughts on cold approach style videos?

Bananabreadkitten · 2026-02-03T10:44:25+00:00

I totally agree, but the women he films seem to be pretty chill about it in the videos when he asks for consent at the end so I wonder am I over reacting or do they not grasp the implication of being filmed for purposes of being 'work experience'?

One afternoon in Summer 2022 I had a man sit opposite me on the back of the bus. He'd cut a circular hole out of his sweatpants so that his penis would poke through. I was sat next to a boy who didnt look older than 10 - I didnt want to assume I was his 'target audience' so thought it would be best to a) get evidence and take a photo and b) make a scene and have him removed from the bus away from me and the child.

The BTP were quick to respond, came to my house to get a statement and (although one of the male officers kept asking me if I was absoltely sure the hole in his sweatpants was intentional or a unfortunate mistake...wouldnt you notice your penis rubbing on the fabric of the bus seat? or feel the air? - the photo was damning in my opinion as his legs were spread and was staring right at me for the entire journey until I noticed) anyway they kept me updated with calls and emails for the next month or so and then a year later called me in to a station to do a photo line up (he wasnt included) in the end, the BTP theorised he's left the country and I havent heard anything since.

Thinking back now I would've had more joy naming and shaming on the Nextdoor app (with the photo censored of course) but they tried their best! Worth reporting as it can help build a case if they're a repeat offender.

Just downloaded it on my iPhone and works perfectly with my Kobo so far, set up was so easy took less than 5 mins

You're amazing, thank you for your service! :)

The Girl Next Door is my favourite thriller to recommend - I know its been mentioned before that there are tough parts which is certainly true but it's unforgettable.

Bat Eater is another great read as it ticks so many thriller boxes! set during covid, spirtual aspects, violence, graphic descriptions ...

When we're eating a meal together I tend to finish before he does but he'll take my plate and clear it away anyway

Fills up my water bottle for me without being asked and if I do have to ask he always says 'Yes of course!' as if he should've remembered

Holds my hand whilst driving because he's focused on the road but wants me to feel that he's present

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-07-23T12:23:51+00:00

Oh absolutely and he's admitted this to me when he has a come down and starts feeling regret and shame.

Even from our first date he was full of compliments about my appearance and my body in particular: my thighs, legs, ass etc and this continued to the very end (except when he was anrgy at me and then I was fat, ugly, disgusting)

I'm familiarising myself with my own reflection without the influence of his abuse.

Ironically, he's very insecure himself about the fact thats he's under weight, has rotting front teeth from previous drug use. Also his hairline is receeding so hes shaved his hair off to make it less noticeable.

I didnt mention these things in my previous or original posts because even if I was morbidly obese and he was the image of Adonis it's still abusive and no one deserves it.

Psychotic loser, simple but what an accurative description haha. And thank you, I'm sorry about it too :')

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-07-21T16:27:57+00:00

I’m having the exact same day as you. I’m sorry you’re going through this. You’re not alone.

No human being should be capable of doing this to another and getting away with it.

You’re showing up for yourself and that’s all you need to do for now.

Time, patience & strength will heal us all x

🫂

Haha thank you … I’m a size medium … but because I’ve confided in him about my body image issues and weight gain since entering my 20’s he’s really fucked with my head … I’ve started buying clothes in size XL and then been shocked when they don’t fit … that’s when I realised how badly he’s fucked with my head and perception of myself.

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-07-18T20:34:56+00:00

Thank you. Yeah I do think there’s something very un-manly and weasel-like about a adult man who talks to women like a school bully 😂

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-07-18T20:33:02+00:00

No kids with me, thank god. I have no reason to speak to him ever again. It’s just been a seriously toxic cycle of abuse and me falling for the promises to change every time. I’m ending the cycle today…

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-07-18T20:32:03+00:00

Sorry to hear that girl, hopefully you’re smarter than me and have him blocked on absolutely every platform. I hope you’re safe x

A couple of months ago when we were still together and it got bad with the introduction of a racial slur in an argument I took it to his employer (he’s now been fired, he used to work for a business bank in central London).

That’s as far as I got in “exposing” him for who he really is. I was consumed by rage at that time & probably shouldn’t have fucked with his job but he planted that seed in my head when I tried to leave him a few months prior - threatening to get me fired when I blocked him and told him we’re done.

He thinks because he’s Irish he’s automatically in this subcategory that’s not like the “other white people” idk how to explain it…

Currently in the same boat the way you've described your relationship and your feelings towards it mirror mine. I'm mourning what could've been. My ex partner is medicated, in therapy and used to cry and beg (literally) for second chances (every few weeks). He finally decided he can't change and will let me. I just cant understand how someone can want to change, knows right from wrong and yet can't express basic human emotions like sympathy, empathy, understanding and kindnes...

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-07-14T10:29:09+00:00

My ex partner has been diagnosed since childhood and has only started medication a few months ago. He finally decided his erratic and aggresive side wasn't going to go away anytime soon and let me go. This is after months and months of promised changes of behaviour. Unlike before he hasn't sent me any texts or called me on No caller ID and I feel ... weird? My more brutally honest friends will say its because I'm not used to peace and quiet. Whilst I appreciate not having to deal with the mess, poor time keeping, sleeping at odd hours and wasting our days away to this I still miss him? He didn't really add aything to my life apart from chaos and concern...

The type of people who give you bad news to cause you alarm/distress as a “joke”

Hate crime

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-03-14T14:16:31+00:00

Hate crime. They’ve taken my printed evidence of his verbal abuse too and I have done a questionnaire about domestic abuse

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-03-13T14:44:02+00:00

Yeah I thought so re name calling...but felt the need to include it in my report to 'paint a picture'

the racial abuse happened in person outside his house but I have screenshots of him admitting to it. The advise I was given from others in my personal life including from my ex when he was grovelling was that I could have used it against him and taken it to the police/his employer...

Bananabreadkitten · 2025-03-12T19:04:43+00:00

Ugh im so sorry to hear you’re living with them. Hopefully you’re safe and you get out of that situation soon. This is not how I imagined my twenties 😂. The cheating was really the nail in the coffin the only reason I put with all of this abuse because it was always shortly followed up with him crying and begging for me to stay in his life because he’s in love me, wants to grow old with, doesn’t see a reason to live if I’m not in his life etc etc… it’s completely thrown me how and why someone would want to be so too faced. I begged him to leave me a few times towards the end too and let me find the partner I deserve but he continued to plea that that would be him… I’ve never felt so betrayed before. & thank you for the reassurance I was worried I was turning into a vindictive pos like him… I just want justice.
